Why doesn't government legislate against fishermen who throw unwanted live catch into the Island's bays?
That's the question currently under consideration by the Department of Environment, Food and Agriculture.
It follows a trip on enforcement vessel, The Barrule, yesterday - when a queenie fishing boat was believed to be ditching smaller fish in Peel bay.
Protecting the scallop fishery is vital to the industry, and they're unlikely to survive without being returned to deeper sea levels.
Minister Richard Ronan says the law could be altered to fit:
Rapists's appeal against sentence thrown out
Last chance to become next TT's charity partner
No gas price hike after regulator review
Cafe hits back after staff abused
Online appointments being considered by sexual health clinic
Treasury can’t say how much is made from medicinal cannabis
Road closures planned for tin baths this weekend
DOI has no junction safety concerns over Iceland plans
